Correction: replace 'scientists' with 'bloomberg', since the primary source is exactly as different as you'd expect given the state of science reporting. Hate click and retweets still fuel the algorithm.

are there gays and bis in the country? of course I rant against the tweet "Why straight rural men have gay "bud-sex" with each other". Progs love "straight men have gay sex" meme. I don't fully understand why. It never goes away.

Your talking about evidence led me to defend the study and the article, since I reflexively ignored the title because I know they're not picked by the author If your actual complaint was "stupid title is example of stupid meme", I stand by the substance of my pedantry but concur

well, to enumerate, my complains are, with varying levels of intensity: * clickbait tweet garbage * calling anything non-quantitative a "study" * claiming that a study of gay and bi men says anything about straight men * bothering at all to do a "study" with a low n and no quants

First one, yes. Exploratory low n interview based studies are a thing, and how else to you get the data to figure out what quantitative studies to try? The study is mostly made up of men who self-identify as straight. The headline doesn't make that clear but everything else does.
